1) Utopia, sometimes known as Todd Rundgren's Utopia, was the band Todd Rundgren formed in the early 70s to play epic progressive rock. Like many progressive bands, they eventually simplified their sound into a sort of sophisticated New Wave and experienced some success in the early MTV era with humorous videos.
The band as an entity covered all styles of music. From rock, country, pop, classical and beyond. The vocal ability of the band overall was supreme; with only Queen even coming close to range and flexibility at that time.
All members are still quite alive and very active with their own projects. Todd Rundgren continuously produces and is always at the cutting edge with computers. Roger Powell works for Apple in a high level position within their music department and Willie Wilcox produces for many artists. Kasim Sulton has his own bass model and consistenly works in music with numerous artists.
Both Todd Rundgren and Kasim Sulton participated in the formation of The New Cars, replacing original members Ric Ocasek and the now-deceased Benjamin Orr. This continued Rundgren's fascination with creating songs and sounds that mimicked other bands' works (see Utopia's Deface the Music for the band's tribute to the Beatles). The New Cars toured and released one album, which contained only three original songs (all others were live performances of The Cars hits).
2) Utopia is a pop rock band from Bandung, Indonesia. Formed on August 8, 2003, the band consists of Pia (female vocals), Indra (bass), Dodo (guitars), and Tommy (drums). As of now, the band has released three albums (in order of release date): "Utopia", "Kekal", and "Indah".

That's Not Right
Utopia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Well that's all right
And if you don't feel like holding me tight
Well that's all right
Cause I know that you love me
And you'll show that you love me
In your own sweet time
But if you feel like hurting me baby
If you don't want to go anywhere
Well I don't mind
If you want to stay home and play with your hair
I still don't mind
Cause I know that you need me
And you'll know how to please me
In your own sweet time
But if you want to leave me well baby
Then I mind
[Chorus]
Well I know that I've been guilty of lying
I know I had a whole lot of nerve
But the way that you treat me since I begged your pardon
Is something that I don't deserve
And if you don't care to give me a date
Well that's all right
Cause I don't care how long I have to wait
I've got all night
Cause I know that you want to
But you know that you're going to make me lose my mind
And if you can not think of me baby
That's not right
[Chorus]
feel like dancing tonight
Well that's all right
And if you don't feel like holding me tight
Well that's all right
Cause I know that you love me
And you'll show that you love me
In your own sweet time
But if you feel like hurting me baby
That's not right
The song "That's Not Right" by Utopia portrays a complex and nuanced relationship between the singer and their partner. The opening lines suggest that one of the partners is not in the mood to dance or be affectionate, but the singer reassures that it's okay and that their partner's love for them will be shown in their own time. However, the mood shifts in the following lines, with the singer warning that if their partner decides to hurt them, it would not be acceptable. This suggests that there may have been an issue in the relationship where one partner might have been hurtful or violent towards the other.
The song then proceeds with the singer once again reassuring their partner that they do not mind if they do not want to go out or stay home and play with their hair. They reaffirm that their partner loves them and will know how to please them in their own time. However, the singer warns that if their partner decides to leave them, they will care. This portrays a sense of uncertainty in the relationship where one partner may be contemplating leaving, and the other is scared of abandonment.
